I've had this issue mulitple times as I like to run all my SCSS files in SASS and when I convert my _settings.scss file to _settings.sass I always get the error that my color palette is not defined. I haven't found a way around it, so I always switch back to SCSS for the _settings.scss file.

So I've switched back to the SCSS format, but I'm still getting the error error scss/_settings.scss (Line 577: Undefined variable: "$primary".

Line 577 is where I call the $primary color to be used as my background color for topbar

$topbar-background: $primary;

My issue seems very similar to this post by Shariff, but I can't tell how he resolved his issue. I have restarted my local server and SASS from the command line.

Hi Andrew, I was wondering that myself. But in theGlobal Files doc you can find this bit:

The line @include add-foundation-colors; in your settings file allows you to use the following Sass variables to reference default colors from the palette:
$primary-color
$secondary-color
$success-color
$warning-color
$alert-color
